MR. BLAINE ON THE MESSAGE.

Promptly upon the publication of the
Presidents message came long inter-
view with Mr.. Blaine by the Paris cor
respondent of the New York Tribune.
We haye not room for all of it. but the
following extract will show its tenor:
"Do you think if the Presidents rec
concentrations were adopted it would in
crease our export trade?"
Possibly in some few articles of pc
culiar construction it might, but it would
increase our import trade tenfold as much
in the great staple fabrics, in woollen and
cotton goods, in iron, in steel, in all the
thousand and one shapes in which they
are wrought. How are we to export sta
pie fabrics to the markets of Europe I'M
less we make them cheaper than they do
in Europe, and how are we to manufac-
ture them cheaper than they do in Eu-
rope unless we get cheaper labor than
they have in Europe?'
1t would vastly enlarge our imports,
while the only export it would seriously

That would flow out bounteously, just as
it did under the tariff of 1916. The Pres
idents recommendation enacted into law
would result as did an experiment in
drainage of man who wished to turn a
swamp into productive field. He dug a
drain to a neighboring river, but it hap
pened unfortunately that the level of the
river was higher than the leyel of the
swamp. The consequence need not be
told. A parallel would be found when
the Presidents policy in attempting to
open channel for an increase of exports
should simply succeed in making way for
a deluging inflow of fabrics to the de-
struction of home industry"
"Then you think the question of labor
underlies the whole subject?'
"Of course it does" replied Mr.. Blaine
